DAINGERFIELD, Texas (KETK) \u2013 The Daingerfield-Lone Star ISD Board of Trustees has called for voters to pass a $45 million bond proposal that would fund a new elementary school campus and more.
\nLIST: 11 East Texas school districts put bond measures on May ballot<\/p>\n
According to the district, the bond proposal came about after a comprehensive districtwide facilities assessment identified several needs across the district, including the aging West Elementary and South Elementary schools, which were both built in the 1950\u2019s.<\/p>\n
Beyond their aging campuses, the district has undersized classrooms, asbestos in certain older materials and a lack of secure entry areas.<\/p>\n
If voters approve the $45 million bond, the following items would be funded:<\/p>\n
A new PK\u20135 elementary school to replace the existing two campuses.
\n Security vestibules at the junior high and high school.
\n Demolition of the current elementary buildings (retaining South Elementary\u2019s library wing for repurposing).
\n Additional high school parking for improved access and safety.<\/p>\n
The district estimates that the Interest & Sinking (I&S) rate will rise by $0.38 per $100 of property value if the bond is passed. As per state law, homeowners 65 and older with a homestead exemption will not see any increase if the bond passes.<\/p>\n
